Sorry to hear that your sister has a similar skin problem on her
hands. Mine was coming from washing dishes, and may have to do with
the use of detergent. Guess what, this problem tends to run in the
same family (my brother also has the same problem). This means you
may develop this problem if you wash dishes without wearing gloves.
My hands take abuse pretty well. When they were calloused I often
cleaned them with a wire brush, diesel oil and sugar. I found it the
best way to remove navy special fuel oil, which is black nasty stuff.
My sister's problem did in fact manifest itself from washing dishes.
She tried different dish detergents to no avail. She now uses an
automatic dishwasher and that has essentially solved her problem.


Anyway, I have found several hand-powered marine water pump fixtures
in one of the marine supply store. Somehow, they are not as
inexpensive as what I thought. In fact, they cost more or less the
same as a simple electric water pump fixture. I guess I may have to
go for the simple electric water pump instead of the hand powered
version that I originally looked for. Oh well; but at least I have a
choice :)
Well, if I wanted to do what you first asked about, I would take the
electric pump approach I first suggested. You can have a container
holding quite a few gallons of fresh water tucked out of the way, with
only a nozzle and switch to tangle your fishing line on. Of course
you've got to run the wires and rubber tubing out of the way.
Personally I would just use squeeze bottles, or a cooler jug with a
turn spigot to meter the water handlessly. With the spigot you can
rinse your hands normally, as you would do under a faucet. The jug
positioning/attachment would be the major issue.
But since I don't have your particular problem or boat it's hard to
judge what's best. Good luck.

Thanks for the suggestion. I am leaning toward using the simplest
electric pump with a tiny faucet as what you have suggested.
Originally I thought of using a hand powered pump. But the available
models are not cheaper than the simplest electric pump and have more
"things" sticking out in comparison to the electric model.


Windshield washer reservoir and pump. Works off of 12 volts. Find the
size you want and afix it to your boat, install a switch and attach it
to the power buss.- Hide quoted text -

Thanks for the very "out of the box" solution. I will see if I can
find one.

He just wants to wash the salt from his hands. With this he'll have
to brush his teeth and put on make-up.

You cannot be serious. Please tell me this is a joke.


Consider that a lot of this goofy posting is from a largely, if
not
totally, anonymous poster using a particularly old version of
Debian
Linux and associated news client.....


Google up the rec.boats proponents of Debian Linux and you will
have
most of the usual suspects.....


He seems fairly straight forward to me - I'm not sure where
you developed this idea about goofy posting.


Besides, as somebody who suffers from skin infections of
one sort or another, it seemed like a perfectly valid question
and one that deserved a appropriate answer.


I'm not sure.... some of his prior questions have had such obvious
answers.... it just looked suspect. Some of those questions I
offered
my advice. This latest one just seemed extremely obvious and, well,
odd..... and then I noticed that he was using the same posting
schema
as the old anon-posting smithers.... made me even more
suspicious....


In a cooking newsgroup, about six months ago:


"Can I make lasagna at home? How?"


Somewhere, these people are being stamped out like cookies.- Hide

Again, it's entirely possible that somebody doesn't know.


The OP got upset when numerous people said "Go buy a box of lasagna
noodles.
There's a recipe on every box, always, no exceptions".

I never thought I'd be like my parents, and saying "Young man, when I was
your age {fill in boring historical stuff here}...", but my roommate and
I
went and bought a cookbook. We learned to cook. We didn't die.- Hide

I am the OP of this thread. I have never posted a question on lasagna
in cooking newsgroup (I haven't done any "real" cooking for the last 5
years). I think you may have mistaken me with someone else.
Moreover, this is far easier to buy a whole tray of ready-made lasagna
from BJ instead of preparing it myself.

Having said that, if you have found someone pretending to be me
posting questions in cooking newsgroup. Please let me know the
newsgroup name. I need to know this. Thanks.

No, he wanted fancy way to rinse hands. I would just spash water from a
Sport top bottle. Been there done that. Not for salt but for mustard, etc.

After all, one must be certain that a one gallon jug of tap water plus hand
soap and towel will satisfy ones hand washing needs while on the salty sea.
;-)

Every one of Mr. Chans questions here turn into 100 or so posts, most of
which are his.

Sounds like the "how to do the kitchen makeover" debate with my ex. 11 years
of debate. She finally did it. All wrong.
